It's become a crap day for a lot of folks and I'm struggling with the news and everything too, and I happened to download my Mastodon archive and realized how many photos of Cal in his box that I have - there are 15 so far, I think more if I keep digging.
So as a small good thing for today, here's our goofy boy and his beloved cardboard friend.

Goddamn. I was going to boost a post but then I got near the end where it said: "crushing to see this happen to human beings who aren't criminals...", and first of all, in such an unjust society define "criminal" for me, would ya? I'd love to hear it.
Secondly, would you think it's okay if "criminals" were kidnapped and tortured?
I assume this person primarily meant to emphasize that these are just everyday people, like your neighbors, but the implication is not good.
Don't let right-wingers define the debate here. They want to argue with us about who is and isn't a criminal, because they don't actually have a defense for why this is okay to do to *anybody*.
So we can endlessly argue about "criminals" while they send people to concentration camps.
I didn't screenshot the post because I'm not trying to call out this specific person. I just wanted to remind us to be careful whose rhetoric & language we are using.
Yikes.
Sometimes the biggest gap between "everyday people" and "criminals" is getting caught.

@freeagent BRICS is a trade organization, it's not an ideological bloc like NATO. This is a strength and not a weakness. Countries within BRICS can have disagreements on policy, but do trade together regardless. China happens to be one of India's biggest trade partners.
This is what actual civilization looks like as opposed to the west where everyone has to be subordinated to daddy.
@freeagent
I never said it wasn't political, every trade agreement is political. What I said is #BRICS is not a military or political alliance it is an alternative system of multi polar trading free of interference from the current US hegemony system where international trade requires trading in US dollars.
For example, New Zealand, which is not even a #BRICS member country, has a FTA with its biggest trading partner China that means NZ and China can freely trade with each other in their own currencies.
I have no idea what argument David is trying to make. His initial comment was that BRICS doesnβt appear to be a unified bloc pointing to the relationship between India and China. Which is why I pointed out the fact BRICS is not a political or military alliance but a cooperative economic system of trade.
USAβs 3 largest trading partners are Mexico, Canada, and China. It would be ridiculous to assume this makes these countries a unified political bloc.
Ironically, since Trump introduced his tariffs India, Japan, South Korea and the ASEAN member nations have all agreed to increase their economic and political cooperation with China.

Best privacy preserving measures
Considering the current intrusive cyber climate, what are the best ways to preserve privacy?
For example, I have been exclusively using a VPN connection network-wide at home setup on OpenWrt, which in turn has a PiHole as its DNS, with the PiHole using Unbound and NextDNS (redundant I know, but I use it to encrypt my requests more than anything else).
I also have Wireguard setup so I can VPN all my devices to my network while I am on the road (also have a NextDNS profile installed. Yes I know, itβs redundant).
I also basically have all my βsmartβ devices (TV, lightbulbs, air purifier, etcβ¦) at home cutoff from the internet using OpenWrtβs firewall to prevent them from calling home.
I rotate web browsers frequently to try and attempt avoiding getting fingerprinted, not sure how useful that is.
I switched email providers to mailbox.org because f*** Google and Microsoft.
I also am hosting my own cloud drive on Nextcloud to avoid using services like GDrive, OneDrive, Dropbox, etcβ¦
I own Apple devices which arenβt the best for privacy but migrating from a whole ecosystem that I have been embedded in for MANY years is easier said than done. Hopefully in the future thatβs my next move.
I feel like there is a lot more I can do but I am not sure what else. I would appreciate any and all suggestions yaβll might have.
